Cleaning And Disinfecting - ROHO HARMONY Operation Manual

Cleaning and Disinfecting

Cleaning and disinfecting are separate processes. Cleaning must precede
disinfection. Before use by a different individual: clean, disinfect, and check
product for proper functioning.
Cover Care: Before cleaning and disinfecting, remove the cushion from the cover.
Remove the hook fastener pieces from bottom of the cover.
To Clean the Cover: Machine wash in warm water (40°C) with mild detergent,
gentle cycle, or wipe clean with neutral detergent and cold water.
Tumble dry low.
To Disinfect the Cover: Hand wash in warm water (40°C) using
1 part household liquid bleach per 9 parts water. Keep the
product wet with the bleach solution for 10 minutes and then rinse
thoroughly. Or machine wash in hot water (60°C). Tumble dry low.
Follow the safety guidelines on the bleach container.
Cushion Care Cautions:
Valve(s) must be closed. DO NOT allow water or cleaning solution to enter the cushion.
DO NOT machine wash or machine dry the cushion. Use of the following may cause
damage to the cushion: abrasives (steel wool, scouring pads); caustic, automatic
dishwasher detergents; cleaning products that contain petroleum or organic solvents,
including acetone, toluene, Methyl Ethyl Ketone (MEK), naphtha, dry cleaning fluid,
adhesive remover; oil-based lotions, lanolin, or phenolic-based disinfectants; ozone
gas; ultraviolet light cleaning methods.
To Clean the Cushion: Close the inflation valve. Hand wash, using mild liquid hand
soap, hand dishwashing liquid, laundry detergent, or a multipurpose detergent (Follow
product label instructions.) Gently scrub all cushion surfaces, using a soft plastic
bristle brush, a sponge or a cloth. Rinse with clean water. Air dry.
To Disinfect the Cushion: Repeat cleaning instructions, using 1 part household liquid
bleach per 9 parts water. Keep the product wet with the bleach solution for 10 minutes.
Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Air dry.
Follow the safety guidelines on the bleach container.
Note: Most germicidal disinfectants are safe if used following the disinfectant
manufacturer's dilution directions.
Note About Sterilization:
High temperatures accelerate aging and will damage the product assembly.
ROHO products are not packaged in a sterile condition, nor are they intended or
required to be sterilized prior to use. If institution protocol demands sterilization:
First, follow the cleaning and disinfecting instructions; then, open the inflation
valve and use the lowest possible sterilizing temperature, but not to exceed 60°C
(158°F), for the shortest time possible. DO NOT autoclave.
